233 E 86th Street #8c

A Rare Combination of Space, Light & Flexibility: 8C at 233 E 86th St. Room to live, room to work, and room to breathe. Residence 8C is a split two-bedroom, two-bath home with something most apartments in the building cant offer: a former balcony that has been enclosed with custom tilt-and-turn soundproof windows and glass panels, insulated, and tied into an additional 3-zone central air system (heat and cold), creating a genuine year-round home office. Theres no summer heat or winter chill to work around, just comfortable, usable space every day of the year. And you havent given up the outdoors to get it: a private open-air terrace sits right alongside. The living and dining room anchors the home, with a custom built-in banquette (with underneath storage) for casual dining and direct access to the terrace. The kitchen includes a dishwasher and generous counter and cabinet space. The split-bedroom layout provides privacy. The king-sized primary bedroom features an en-suite bath with a soaking tub and custom cabinetry. Custom built-in shelving also creates a separate, sun filled, additional space within the room that can be used a second home office, or an exercise area. The second bedroom sits on the opposite side of the home, beside another full bath with a soaking tub. A gracious entry foyer with ample built-in cabinetry and a closet, plus an in-unit washer/dryer and dedicated basement storage, complete the residence. Facing the back of the building, the apartment provides beautiful Upper East Side views and is pin-drop quiet. 233 East 86th Street is a 22-story full-service building with no more than four apartments per floor. Residents enjoy a full-time doorman, resident manager, landscaped courtyard garden, gym, co-working space, bike room, complimentary storage, central laundry, and a duplex roof deck with sweeping city views. Pieds--terre, guarantors, gifting, and pets are welcome, with a liberal sublet policy and up to 80% financing, making this an equally strong choice for end users and investors. Moments from the Q and 4/5/6 trains, Fairway, Whole Foods, Carl Schurz Park, Central Park, and Museum Mile. There is a $1,126 assessment until March 2027.
